"yeah master, show them who is boss" the girl yells excitedly as she jumps from tree to tree with meliodas and watches as the pig takes out all of the knights one by one except for the last one, Allioni "quick, go ahead" she says to meliodas and he quickly goes ahead so he could grab Elizabeth while the final holy knight almost runs straight of the side of a cliff
"wheres the girl" the knight asks in confusion
"down you go" Hawk yells out and then quicks the holy knight down the giant cliff
"mothers embrace" the female tavern owner calls out loudly and then quickly makes her way over to meliodas and Elizabeth
"how could i ever thank the two of you for saving me? Not just once... but two times" Elizabeth says softly and confused as she feels meliodas squeezing her boob once again
"god, both of your brothers have got more manners than the two of you combined" the brown haired girl mumbles softly to herself so no one could hear her
"I'm telling you lady feel free to haul off and punch him" hawk says
"or i could do it for you" the girl tavern owner says with a grin
They jump out of the trees and make their way to the edge to look at the view of over the cliff
"so... why are you out here looking for the eight deadly sins anyways?" Meliodas asks her in confusion
"i want to ask them... to help me stop the holy knights" ELizabeth says with determination in her voice
"are you serious why in the world would you want to do that?" Hawk asks in confusion "the holy knights are the kings men. They are the knights who protect liones! the real heroes!"
"but... what if they were the ones behind the war and the ones plotting to destroy our country, the other day, except for the king himself, the entire royal family was arrested and was being held by the holy knights" ELizabteh says and this shocks both tavern owners, how could the king let the holy knights get away with this
"does that mean that the king is actually really sick in bed" hawk asks in shock
"that is just a cover story that the holy knights are using, i don't know what they are hoping to accomplish by driving the nation to war, but know they are drafting the people of the kingdom, they are taking and using men from wherever they can get them and preparing for the war everwhere you look" Elizabeth says softly and begins to play with her hair sadly as she thought about the current conditions in the kingdom of liones "soon, their extent will reach all of the way out here"
"that isn't good" Hawk says worriedly as he listens to the girls words
"yeah, tough break huh" Meliodas says with no emotion
"might mean more business for the tavern" the girl jokes though she really did feel bad for all of the men who were living in such harsh conditions and going through so much, it reminded her slightly of the holy war from 3000 years ago though no where near as bad and she didn't have the person she cared for the most by her side now.
